That weight loss road has taken a turn on coffee road, green coffee that is. The green coffee extract has been around for a little while and seems to have properties to help aid in weight loss. There are many Green coffee bean supplements out there but Life & Food has improved on it. They have added Svetol® for a more effective weight loss supplement.

The questions I had on this product was why Green Coffee Bean Extract and what is the difference between Green Coffee Bean Extract (GCBE) and Svetol®? This is the information the company provided, I felt they worded it really well:

*******

Green Coffee Bean contains an active compound called Chlorogenic Acid, which is an especially strong antioxidant. Antioxidants act as sponges that stop and sop up free radicals within the body, preventing them from causing oxidative damage. What is more is that Chlorogenic Acid seems to be able to modify one’s metabolic function by changing the method with which the body responds to glucose (sugar). This in turn alters the body’s insulin response to glucose, for the better, willing the body to burn fat as energy rather than store energy as fat. This also gives the added side effect of increasing energy levels and moderating the blood pressure.Normal roasted coffee seems to have a negative effect on the body’s cholesterol levels, all by virtue of a biochemical known as cafestol. This compound, also known as a dipterpene, seems to increase the levels of bad cholesterol in the body (LDL cholesterol), which can increase the risk of certain health conditions, such as heart, related issues.

Taken 2-3 times daily has shown in many cases to give you the natural health boost needed to aid metabolism, reduce glucose absorption and burn fat. . – Contains a small 20 mg caffeine. – Preserves the natural Chlorogenic acid found in green coffee beans. Standardized to 50% Chlorogenic Acid – No added fillers or binders.

LIFE & FOOD SVETOL GOLD GCBE HIGHLIGHTSEach serving of 2 capsules contain 600 mg of 50% chlorogenic acid extract, and 200 mg of SVETOL® at 45% chlorogenic acid standardization.Clinically proven SVETOL supports the reduction of glucose absorption, which leads to efficient FAT BURNING.Contains a small amount of caffeine, with no fillers or artificial ingredients.Manufactured and produced in a FDA registered and GMP certified facility in the USA.

WHY SVETOL®?Life & Food Green Coffee Bean Extract Gold Using premium quality SVETOL® grade coffee bean extract from Coffea Robusta, this version provides a more optimized Chlorogenic Acid concentration of our popular green coffee bean extract supplement. (see label for chlorogenic acid standardization)Svetol® utilize a traditional and non-selective method of extracting the coffee beans that gives Svetol® characteristics not found in any other GCBE product on the market: a well-balanced composition of its most beneficial class of compounds –chlorogenic acids.Svetol® have been proven in 8 scientific studies, both experimental and clinical, giving Svetol® a great scientific advantage over generic GCBE products.

*****Through some research I have found out that 400mg of Svetol is equivalent to 3-6 cups of coffee. Svetol® doesn't contain certain molecules found in most coffees that makes themharmful to health when consumed in high doses and does not contain these compounds (cafestol, kahweol) and contains far less caffeine than coffee. Svetol® is thus much safer for consumers.

I have tried this and I have not had any side effects. As with any other supplement I recommend drinking a lot of water and being active. Every supplement reacts different with each person, and each supplement takes time to work. So with any product you take please give it at least a whole bottles worth of time and take as directed. So give it a try and let us know how it works for you!
